IT IS NOT NATE SILVER’S FAULT THAT PEOPLE DON’T UNDERSTAND PROBABILITIES. He gave Trump a higher chance of winning the presidency than the Cubs had of coming back and winning the World Series after Game 4 and we literally all JUST saw that happen. He doesn’t conduct the polls, he aggregates them, and there was no way

This poll was more wrong than Nate Silver’s model and most of the polls he was using, just in the other direction. It predicted Trump handily winning the popular vote, which he didn’t.

Okay, but they posted the Jane the Virgin spoilers like the day after they happened, and I’ve been in a post-election depression for the last week

Ahem, Paula pursuing her dream that maybe this time won’t be awful is very important to me! (They also spoiled a much more major plot on Jane the Virgin)

Guys, I love that we have all these awesome CW shows depicting abortions, but I am super behind in my tv-watching and you’re spoiling all my favorite shows!

And this Israeli Jew, who has been tasked with carrying on the memory of her safta’s father who died in Auschwitz since she was about 10, is fucking TERRIFIED.

I’m sorry :(

I went to a “community brunch” in my building (in LA in a neighborhood that went 9% for Trump) and this old white guy was bitching about his niece calling all Trump supporters racist and how he’s not racist just because he voted for Trump. I can’t deal with them yet.

Me (Jewish) and my boyfriend with a Muslim dad (and therefore Muslim-sounding last name) are trying to figure out where the fuck we go. We both have European citizenship, but that seems to be useless now that the neo-Nazis there are being encouraged by Trump. All I’ve been able to think about lately was Anne Frank’s

They’re also not going to make Clinton president. If they flip, it’ll be to somebody else entirely, probably to another Republican. The best case scenario is that Trump’s not elected by the electoral college, at which point it goes to the house and you know that those sacks of shit will be way too scared of the wrath

Maybe it’s helping? Like how once I finished crying and refreshing Facebook for four hours yesterday, that hour of mindless data entry I managed to get out was actually a little nice and distracting.

They are updating based on called states only. So states that haven’t been called are still based on polling, which means it’s not taking into account the fact that those states aren’t what we expected them to be.

Have you ever listened to the Gilmore Guys podcast? They hate him so much and refer to him as Chad Michael Mudface. I can’t call him anything else now.

Well, some people lost all of their belongings. Don’t you think that includes athletic equipment?

Or even better, to prevent an election.

I’m so fucking excited for a Ben Folds/Regina Spektor Dear Theodosia, it’s not even funny.

I got to see all of the original cast except Renee Elise Goldsberry and Christopher Jackson. I hadn’t listened to the soundtrack yet so I didn’t know what I was missing (although their understudies were pretty great and Satisfied was still one of my favorite songs) - now that I’ve listened, Christopher Jackson is one

Not wrong at all. I saw it last March (so about 6 months after the soundtrack came out) and I think I may have been the only person in the theater who hadn’t heard it before, but it was so worth it. You only have one chance to hear it for the first time, and I think it’s best if you can do it live. Also, it totally

I saw Lance Bass speak at a coming out event recently and a) he’s a fantastic storyteller and I now feel like we’re BFFs even though he obviously has no idea who I am and b) he is BEAUTIFUL in person. Like, just such a pretty human being, it’s ridiculous.

Yeah, I can understand that. And it’s not like, oh no matter how it happened, I’d be cool with cheating. There are obviously ways of going about it that are all about having that power over somebody else or abusing their trust, and that’s not cool at all. And like I said, I’m not judging anybody else for how they
